OpenID Connect SSO

You can use OpenID Connect single sign-on (SSO) authentication to securely sign in to remote access IPsec and SSL VPN tunnels through the Sophos Connect client.

VPN portal port

The VPN portal port is used both to access the VPN portal and to establish SSO.

Note

Don't change this setting unless your administrator asks you to change it.

Sign in to the Sophos Connect client.

Force SSO re-login

If you signed in using SSO and connected to the network using a shared endpoint, we recommend that you force an SSO re-login. The next user must then sign in to the client using their SSO credentials and can't use your VPN session.

To force an SSO re-login, do as follows:

  1. In the Sophos Connect client, click menu Sophos Connect menu. in the upper-right corner.
  2. Click Force SSO re-login.
  3. Click OK.
